HIS BEAUTIFUL ADDICTION - Chapter 413: You want to go on a trip?

Chapter 413: You want to go on a trip?

Her legs shook as she fell to the ground, tears welling up in her eyes.

What has she done to herself?

She breathed in and out as she ran to the window and saw the cars parked outside.

Gwen fell to the ground as tears poured from her eyes. It was all over.

…

Tiana fell sick the instant she came back home. Not saying a word to anyone, she went to her room and lay down. She didn’t know when she slept off, she only woke up to Nicklaus nudging her.

Tiana opened her eyes to see him with a worried look on his face. He was saying something, but she couldn’t hear him. She closed her eyes and looked at him again; his face becoming clearer now.

She smiled,

“You’re back.” She murmured.

Nicklaus did not hear what happened until after his meeting, he was shocked to see his family trending online, and the incredible number of missed calls on his phone.

Ignoring everyone else, he quickly called his wife, but she wasn’t answering.

He became worried and rushed back home only to see her wrapped in a duvet and running a temperature.

Nicklaus helped her sit up, “We have to go to the hospital.”

“Why?” Tiana asked; a frown forming on her brows. Did something happen?

“You have a high fever.” He said. Tiana touched her forehead and sighed when she realized that what happened earlier that day had gotten to her more than she had thought.

“Oh, that’s because I was a little stressed out from today, it’s going to go down soon,”

“We still have to go to the hospital. What if something is wrong? We cannot risk it.”

Tiana shook her head.

“I don’t want to. We can call a doctor over, paparazzi will be all around. I don’t want them to spread new rumors. Right now, they’ll keep their hands on anything they can find.”

Nicklaus stared at her for a moment, then he kissed her hair.

“Okay.” he didn’t want to stress her more than she already was, so he agreed to her demands.

He called the doctor and in thirty minutes he had come over.

“It is just a minor cold, she’ll be fine after she takes the pills I prescribed.”

The doctor said, and Nicklaus nodded. After talking for a while, he left, and Nicklaus went back to the room.

Tiana was sitting with her eyes pinned on her phone. She didn’t even notice when he came inside.

Nicklaus walked to the bed and took the phone from her.

He looked at what she was watching for a second, and then he put the phone away.

“I didn’t know it was going to get to this point, I didn’t know some people were eavesdropping on us, even though I detest what she did to me I didn’t want to drag you into this, I’m so sorry…”

Tiana apologized. He said nothing about what happened that morning when he came back. She was already feeling sad for dragging him into the scandal, and seeing him keep quiet about it made her feel worse.

Nicklaus smiled and pulled her close for a warm hug;

“You want to go on a trip?”

Tiana frowned, “stop, I’m serious now.”

She cried in his arms. He was fond of doing this, making a joke out of something serious.

“I’m serious too. Let’s go to the Bahamas? Or Tokyo? Where do you want to go, just say the word and we’re leaving first thing tomorrow morning?”

Tiana sighed as she hugged him back.

“What do I do without you?”

Nicklaus grinned, kissing her forehead. “What do you want to do without me?”

Tiana pouted; “Today was very rough for me, so many things happened all at once. I didn’t think it would happen this fast, I didn’t have the time to process anything.”

Nicklaus patted her hair. “I don’t care what anyone says or what they think, all I care about is you. It’s not your fault that all this happened, so you shouldn’t let these things get to you; soon they will stop talking about it.”

Tiana smiled, “Okay,”

“So do we go on a trip?”

She shook her head, “No not yet, I just returned, and there is a lot of work to do, also I don’t want the public creating new rumors if I don’t come back to work.”

“You know you can quit this job if it’s becoming stressful, right? I have enough money to last us 5 lifetimes even if we do nothing.”

“I know but I love what I do, don’t worry I’ll let you know if it becomes unbearable.”

Tiana sighed and kissed him. “I love you,” she said, hugging him. In his arms right now were the only place she wanted to be in.

“Love you too, beautiful.” Nicklaus hugged her back, kissing her hair.

They had gone through a lot and experienced so much pain in life. Too much pain for one person to bear, but he was happy that through it all, she was by his side. He was glad that finally; it was all over. This phase of life was the most excruciating thing that had ever happened to him, but he was glad that at the end of it all, he had her by his side.

Tiana didn’t let go of him for most of the night, her head resting on his arm. Even though his arm became numb in the middle of the night, Nicklaus did not move. He just let her sleep.

In the morning, he made her breakfast before she woke up.

Tiana smiled when she saw him walk into the room with a tray.

“Good morning, baby.” She grinned excitedly, stretching her limbs;

“Good morning, how was your night?”

Nicklaus placed the food by her side, and he kissed her chin.

“It was perfect, thank you for the breakfast.”

She smiled as she dug into the sandwich.

“Mmm… tastes great! I love it.”

Nicklaus caressed her chin. He had woken up early to make her breakfast. The previous day was bad for her. He didn’t want her waking up and looking gloomy.

Seeing her now, smiling and happy, he finally felt at rest.

“Have some,” Tiana said, but Nicklaus shook his head and stood up.

“Sorry love, but I have to go now, will come back early so we can have dinner together. Love you.”

He said and kissed her forehead, then walked to the bathroom to take a shower. n-𝑜(𝒱𝑒𝐿-𝔲.𝒮-𝒷,)/𝑐/𝗼/𝐌
